What this shows Strava's Innovation Score is 35.1/100 (top 50% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Strava?

Each dot is one of Strava’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Strava’s own 21.8 claims/patent is ABOVE the 11.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Strava's grants concentrate

Strava, Inc. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 73.7% of grants classified under G01C (Measuring Distances, Levels OR BEARINGS; SURVEYING; NAVIGATION; Gyroscopic INSTRUMENTS; Photogrammetry OR Videogrammetry). Peak complete grant year is 2017 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2021. By volume, Strava sits between Stemcentrx, Inc. and Suzhou Cleva Precision Machinery and Technology Co., Ltd..

Strava's three-year grant acceleration

Strava, Inc. shows 1 grants in 2022–2024 against only 6 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
